NEED TO KNOW

  • Roger Borkum was beaten to death in Jacksonville, Fla., in October
  • Three teens, including one who was 12 at the time of the attack, were charged with murder in connection with Borkum’s death
  • According to his obituary, Borkum worked on the 77th floor of tower 1 of the World Trade Center in 2001, but his job ended mere months before the 9/11 attacks

Three Florida teens, including a 13-year-old, were charged with murder in the death of a man who was fatally beaten in October.

Justin Curry, 13, Robert Pope, 16 and Marcavion Lacey, 19, were all charged with murder in the death of Roger Borkum, 64, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.

It is not immediately clear if any of the suspects have entered pleas.

Police said they responded to a report of an aggravated battery in downtown Jacksonville on October 19. Borkum died in a hospital four days later.

Pope and Lacey were arrested and charged soon after the attack, police said, but Curry, who was 12 years old at the time of the alleged attack, was not indicted until Nov. 20.

According to an arrest report for Lacey, obtained by PEOPLE, he allegedly told police that Borkum, whom he’d never met, had insulted his “dead homies.”

The arrest report alleged that Lacey and two other with redacted names had battered the victim but said they didn’t intend to kill him.

Borkum, according to his obituary, was a New York native and a widower, who formerly had a computer consulting business.

The obituary further stated that Borkum “narrowly escaped death” on 9/11 when his consulting job ended in July 2001.

“The job was on the 77th floor of tower 1 of the World Trade Center; his coworkers perished on September 11 of that year,” the obituary stated.
